Can-Pack Group, the manufacturer of aluminium beverage cans, has launched its new Dh200m ($54.4m) manufacturing plant at Dubai Investments Park, Dubai.
The 150,000ft2 facility, the group's second manufacturing plant in the area, is expected to produce 1.75 million cans per day and would serve as a warehouse and distribution centre for the group.
Can-Pack Group CEO Philip Impink said: "We are delighted to inaugurate this manufacturing plant that will enable us to better service our clients.
"Since first establishing a beverage can factory in Dubai Investments Park in early 2007, we have witnessed a growing demand for high quality one-way packaging.
"This facility has enabled us to bring our total capacity of cans to over 1.6 billion per annum or a spectacular five million cans per day."
Can-Pack Group's customers include Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Heineken, Carlsberg, SAB-Miller, and InBev.
The company has 38 plants located across Europe, Middle East, North Africa and Asia.
To reduce environmental footprint, Can-Pack uses water-based paints and varnishes that eliminate the negative impact of printing and varnishing on the natural environment.
